Directions (1-5): Shop D:
Shop A: Number of pearl balloons sold = 1760 * 5/11 =
Number of pearl balloons sold = 1200 * 7/12 = 800

C = 300 – 160 = 140 3x * 30/100 * R/5 = 2 * [4x * (1002 + R2 + 200R –
1002)/1002]
Directions (6-10): 3x * 30/100 * R/5 = 8x * (R2 + 200R)/1002
6) Answer: B 450R = 2R2 + 400R
Total number of subscribers in Hotstar in May = 2R2 = 50R
180 * 100/15 = 1200 (in thousands) R = 25
7) Answer: B 12) Answer: A

A + B + C = 60

(A – 4 + B – 4)/2 = C + 2 5/A + 5/24 + 13/24 = 1

(A + B – 8) = 2C + 4 5/A = 1 – 18/24
A + B = 2C + 12 5/A = 1 – ¾
2C + 12 + C = 60 5/A = ¼
3C = 48 A = 20 days
C = 16 years Time taken by A alone to complete the work = 20
A + C = 18 * 2 days
A + C = 36 Ratio of efficiency of A to B = 6:5
A = 36 – 16 = 20 years Total work done by A = 5 x 6 = 30 units
20 + B + 16 = 60 Total work done by B = (5 + 13) x 5 = 90 units
B = 60 – 36 = 24 years Wages obtained by B = 3200 * 90/(30 + 90) =
Age of B before 6 years = 24 – 6 = 18 years Rs.2400
13) Answer: A 16) Answer: B

Income of A = Rs.40000 (x + x – 60)/14 = (x + 1.5x)/20
Income of B = 40000 * 100/80 = Rs.50000 (2x – 60)/7 = 2.5x/10
Expenditure of B = 50000 * (100 – x + 55)/100 = 20x – 600 = 17.5x
500 * (155 – x) 2.5x = 600
500 * (155 – x) = 37500 x = 240 m
155 – x = 75 Speed of the train = (240 + 1.5 * 240)/20 = (240
x = 80% + 360)/20 = 600/20 = 30 m/s = 30 * 18/5 = 108
Savings of A = 40000 * (100 – x)/100 = 40000 * km/hr
(100 – 80)/100 = 40000 * 20/100 = Rs.8000
17) Answer: A
14) Answer: D Let the speed of the boat in still water be B
x/(x + 1500) = (4x/3)/(22000 – 4x/3) km/hr.
1/(x + 1500) = 4/3 * (66000 – 4x)/3 x/12 = B
66000 – 4x = 4x + 6000 x = 12B
8x = 60000 x/(B – C) – x/(B + C) = 5
x = Rs.7500 12B/(B – 4) – 12B/(B + 4) = 5
Investment of B = 7500 + 1500 = Rs.9000 (12B2 + 48B – 12B2 + 48B)/(B2 – 16) = 5
96B = 5B2 – 80
15) Answer: C 5B2 – 96B – 80 = 0

5B2 – 100B + 4B – 80 = 0 120 + x = 4x

5B(B – 20) + 4(B – 20) = 0 3x = 120
B = 20, -4/5 x = 40 liters
Speed of the boat in still water = 20 km/hr Initial quantity of water = 40 liters
Downstream speed of the boat = 20 + 4 = 24 Initial quantity of mixture = 60 + 40 = 100 liters
km/hr Quantity removed = 100 * 20/100 = 20 liters
Required ratio = 60 – 20 * 3/5 + 40 * 4/5 : 40 –
18) Answer: B 20 * 2/5 = (60 – 12 + 32) : (40 – 8) = 80:32 = 5:2
Let the height of the right angled triangle be x m. 20) Answer: C
b2 + h2 = hypotenuse Let the cost price of each pencil be Rs.x and the
92 + h2 = 412 cost price of each pen be Rs.(x – 2).
81 + h2 = 1681 10 * x * 73/100 + 15 * (x – 2) * 120/100 = 10x +
h2 = 1600 15 * (x – 2)
h = 40 m 73x/10 + (180x – 360)/10 = 25x – 30
Area of the right angled triangle = 1/2 * 9 * 40 = 253x – 360 = 250x – 300
180 m2 3x = 60
x = 20
19) Answer: A Cost price of one pen = 20 – 2 = Rs.18
(60 + x/2)/x = 2/1 Selling price of two pen = 2 * 18 * 120/100 =
(120 + x)/2 = 2x Rs.43.2

1) Answer: C 5) Answer: A
187 – 125 + 19 = ? * 9 43 * 18 – 21 * 23 = ? + 191
81 = ? * 9 774 – 483 = ? + 191
?=9 ? = 100
2) Answer: C 6) Answer: C
(0.64)78 ÷ (0.512)39 = (0.8)? 18.18 * 29.98 = ? * 8.98
0.8(78 * 2 – 39 * 3) = (0.8)? 18 * 30 = ? * 9
? = 39 ? = 60
√2304 ÷ 3√(1728) + 2√(3025) * √16 = ? (15.14% of 8999.78 – 6.91% 300.35) = ?
48/12 + 55 * 4 = ? => (15% of 9000) – (7% of 300) = ?
? = 224 => 1350 – 21
=> 1329
4) Answer: D
?2 = (4 * 200 *√4)/(3√15625) 8) Answer: C
=4 * 200 * 2/25 30.012% of 579.94 + 21.15 % of 199.93 = ? +
= 64 = 82 √2115
So, (30/100) * 580 + (21/100) * 200 = ? + √2116
?=8 174 + 42 = ? + 46
? = 170

8 + (2 * 32) = 26
9) Answer: A 26 + (3 * 42) = 74
156 + 400 + 155 =? 74 + (4 * 52) = 174
711 =? 174 + (5 * 62) = 354

13.72 % of 349.88 + 11 % of 295 = x % of 50.01 The pattern is,
(14 / 100) * 350 + (11 / 100) * 300 = (x / 100) * 24 *1 – 13= 23
50 23*2 – 23 = 38
49 + 33 = (x / 2) 38*3 – 33 = 87
82 * 2 = x 87*4 – 43 =284
x = 164 284*5 – 53=1295
11) Answer: C The answer is, 1295
11 + (2 * 3) = 17 16) Answer: A
17 + (2 * 5) = 27 24 * 1.5 = 36
27 + (2 * 7) = 41 36 * 2.5 = 90
41 + (2 * 9) = 59 90 * 1.5 = 135
59 + (2 * 11) = 81 135 * 2.5 = 337.5
337.5 * 1.5 = 506.25
12) Answer: D
10.5 + 5 = 15.5 17) Answer: B
15.5 - 10 = 5.5 79 + 240 = 319
5.5 + 15 = 20.5 319 + 120 = 439
20.5 – 20 = 0.5 439 + 60 = 499
499 + 30 = 529
13) Answer: D 529 + 15 = 544
456 * (1/2) = 228
228 * (3/2) = 342 18) Answer: C
342 * (5/2) = 855 19+(1+9)=29
855 * (7/2) = 2992.5 29+(2+9)=40
40+(4+0)=44
14) Answer: C 44+(4+4)=52
4 + (1 * 22) = 8 52 + (5 + 2) = 59

19) Answer: E Hence, relationship between x and y cannot be

determined.
23) Answer: B
x2+17x+42=0
Hence, the required answer = 87.8. x2+14x+3x+42=0

x(x+14)+3(x+14)=0
20) Answer: C (x+14) (x+3)=0
Given series is x=-14, -3

(y+3)2=0
y=-3, -3
From the values of x and y,
x≤y
21) Answer: B
2x2 – 30x + 100 = 0
24) Answer: A
2x2 – 20x – 10x + 100 = 0
2x2+19x+35=0
2x(x – 10) – 10(x – 10) = 0
2x2 + 14x + 5x + 35 = 0
(2x – 10)(x – 10) = 0
2x(x + 7) + 5(x + 7) = 0
x = 5, 10
(x+7) (2x+5) =0
3y2 – 24y + 45 = 0
x= -7, -2.5
3y2 – 15y – 9y + 45 = 0
2y2+39y+187=0
3y(y – 15) – 9(y – 5) = 0
2y2 + 22y + 17y + 187= 0
(3y – 9)(y – 5) = 0
2y(y + 11) + 17(y + 11) = 0
y = 3, 5
(y+11) (2y+17) =0
x≥y
y = -11, -8.5
Therefore, x > y
22) Answer: E
25) Answer: C
From I =>x2 + 2x – 15 = 0
x2+ 10x – 96 = 0
=>x(x + 5) – 3(x + 5) = 0
x2+ 16x – 6x – 96 = 0
=> (x – 3) (x + 5) = 0
x(x + 16) – 6(x + 16) = 0
=> x = 3, -5
(x – 6)(x + 16) = 0
From II =>y2 + 8x + 15 = 0
x = 6, -16
=> (y + 3) (y + 5) = 0
y2 + 23y + 112 = 0
=> y = -3, -5

y2 + 16y + 7y + 112 = 0 y = -7, -16

y(y + 16) + 7(y + 16) = 0 Relationship between x and y cannot be established.
(y + 7)(y + 16) = 0
